I think Tesco should lose a few days profit for their scummy attitude to young workers, so count me in on any direct action. <div>Rick<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Feb 18, 2012 at 9:01 PM, <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:occupysheffield-request@email-lists.org">occupysheffield-request@email-lists.org</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Hey Everyone :)<br>
<br>
There is what looks to be an exciting Occupy and wider mobilisation<br>
underway in response to the government's awful workfare programme.<br>
<br>
This is great because, as a movement I think we should be all over this<br>
like a rash. But in my view not only should we be joining forces with<br>
others blocking it, we should be adding an Occupy imprint to the whole<br>
thing by putting forward democratic alternatives to the present model of<br>
employment in the UK. The 'Labour' Party is nowhere to be seen on this, and<br>
in my opinion the issue of work and productivity goes to the heart of the<br>
future direction, not to mention fulfilment of our society.<br>
<br>
I would like to explore this further, and have some ideas to share as part<br>
of a discussion but first I wanted to cast out for interest in our group in<br>
taking this forward.<br>
<br>
I have sent this message to the London Economics and Democracy WGs as i<br>
think it purtains to both groups, but I also wanted to see how people felt<br>
about it nationally.<br>
Personally I think a national Occupy Work conference would be the way to go<br>
if we could first thrash out some common ground, aswell as considering and<br>
identifying some of the different strands of thinking on benefits and the<br>
future of employment that we collectively hold.<br>
<br>
What do people think - worth a discussion on-line to start with ?<br>
<br>
Best wishes<br>
<br>
Mark<br>

What do people think of having our Wednesday GA outside of Tesco? The West St one is closest to town but Infirmary Rd might be a bit easier/bigger.<br>
We could have placards, plan for the future, hopefully perturb Tesco a bit and talk to some people.<br>

Hi Sarah<br>
<br>
Here in London there is talk of doing roving GAs inside and outside Tescos<br>
and a whole host of other targets relevant to Occupy campaign work :)<br>
